Hit and run arrest

Authorities detained a man for supposedly causing a fatal hit and run nearly 10 months ago.

Law enforcement officials announced the Sept. 28 arrest of Christopher Cook (left), with their investigation and an anonymous tip leading them to believe that the 43-year-old is responsible for the Dec. 23, 2015 death of Theresa M. Pozzi, who resided in Bella Vista, on State Road.

Authorities charged Cook with an accident involving death, homicide by vehicle, and involuntary manslaughter. He had not posted his $1 million bail as of press time and awaits an Oct. 19 preliminary hearing.
